    A great and simple curry. As it was a last minute decision to cook it, I used a tin of chickpeas and just bolied the split peas for about half an hour before adding everything into the T.M bowl with the tomato/onion/spice mix.

    Absolutely divine. The only thing I'd change is to make double!

    I just realised the squares of caramel slice I grabbed from the freezer for dessert were also your recipe tmrc_emoticons.)
